WFMU Radio

Yes i have been listening to "World of Echo" from radio WFMU, New Jersey, USA  this evening downstreamed to my PC - after buying the book "The Best of LCD, The Art and Writngs of WFMU - FM" from Waterstones on Wednesday midday where GC caught me looking through the music books. She was mystery shopping the instore Costa Coffee place.

Eastbourne Visit

 
I was in Eastbourne today doing a survey, with other guys and gals, about new side dishes that Mc Crap are wanting to introduce with four other interviwers.

Beforehand, a quick zap around the charity shops snagged four albums for under a quid each. Two were just 50 pence each.

Johnny Copeland - Dedicated To The Greatest (Kent LP 1987)
The Salsoul Orchestra - Christmas Jollies (Salsoul LP 1976) - the best Xmas album ever,perhaps?
Luther Vandross -The Night I Fell In Love (Epic LP 1985)
The Carpenters - Horizon (A&M LP 1974)

plus one single -

Millie Jackson - My Man Is A Sweet Man 12" single (Spring 1972) - B side is great too!

Yo Xmas is coming folks.Ho ho ho!!
